Sen. Cory Booker (D-N.J.), who is eyeing a potential presidential run in 2028, said Sunday the Democratic Party has failed this moment by not embracing a political vision that transcends traditional party lines and the left-versus-right divide.
Booker made his comment during an interview with NBCs Meet the Press when asked about his argument in a new book that political parties cant cancel everyone who fails a purity test.
Asked by NBC anchor Kristen Welker whether Democrats are making a mistake of shrinking their coalition with purity tests, Booker responded that his party has failed this moment.
Ive called for generational renewal because this left/right divide is killing our country. And our adversaries know it. They come onto our social media and try to whip up hate in America. That is one of our biggest crises, he said.
